1. PRADHAN MANTRI GRAM SADAK YOJANA
1. Scheme : Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) (100%) 2. Year of Start : 2000-01 3. Brief Write-up : Under this scheme, first link (connectivity) is to be provided to all connected habitations having population 500 or more in
the rural areas by the year. In 2004-05 upgradation of roads was also allowed. 4. Financial Achievement
1. Progress – Satisfactory. State Govt. meager amount of Rs 25.00 Cr per year in the first 5 years when funds were being provided mainly for new connectivity. Funds allocation thereafter increased when upgradation works were also allowed from 2004-05.
2. BADP Package - Border Area package (for 36 No. roads) proposals amounting Rs 235.36 Crore for the upgradation of rural roads through Border Districts has been submitted to MORD during May 2009. These proposals are lying pending for consideration of Empowered
Flagship Programme 30-9-09-GoI.doc 3
Committee of MORD due to non-supply of mandatory certificates by the State regarding provision of maintenance amount required for already completed PMGSY roads, expenditure on maintenance in last quarter and certificate regarding land availability.
3. Land Acquisition - To avail central grant fully for Phase VIII and Phase IX works, there is requirement of Rs 185.00 Crore to acquire 870 acres of land. PIDB has released Rs 50.00 Cr for land acquisition in the year 2008-09 and balance Rs.135.00 Crore are required during the year 2009-10.
4. Funds for Maintenance - State is required to maintain the roads completed under various Phases of PMGSY. During the year 2009-10, funds amounting to Rs 12.00 crore are required for routine maintenance of these roads. Further Rs 45-50 Crore are required for the laying of periodical renewal coat on these roads as the roads completed under Phase I & II are due for renewal coat. These funds should be provided either from state budget or Rural Development Fund.
5. State share - Rs 29.94 Crore state share is required for Phase VIII works as per the revised guidelines of GoI. 5. Physical Progress

1 Ongoing projects - At present two projects are under implementation – (1) Kandi Canal Phase-II project started in 2006-07 and (2) First Patiala Feeder Kotla Branch started in 2008-09. During 2008-09, other projects – Shahpur Kandi, Dashmesh Canal, Bist Doab Canal, Abohar and Bathinda Branch were included in the plan but were not approved on account of 1-1 criteria. Out of 29 crore the State got 13.93 crore during 2007-08. The allocation for Major Irrigation Projects under AIBP is 17.50 Cr (GoI share) in 2009-10.
Flagship Programme 30-9-09-GoI.doc 6
2 CADA works – The entire amount of 40 crore earmarked during 2008-09 was received from GoI. There is some problems regarding GoI and State Share to Irrigation Department. The allocation under CADA is Rs. 50 Cr (GoI share) in 2009-10.
The final physical progress will be available after the completion of the projects.
6. Problems faced by the State
o The funding pattern under AIBP is now 50:50 for CADA schemes and 25 : 75 (CS : State ) for other major schemes. Less receipt of funds from GoI is due to non relaxation of one for one condition and late finalization of guidelines for CADA works.
o At present under AIBP two major projects namely Extension of Kandi Canal phase-II and Rehabilitation of Channels of First Patiala Feeder and Kotla Branch are being implemented in the State however, the State has submitted a project costing Rs 552 Cr for Extension, Renovation and Modernization (ERM) of branch canals of Sirhind Canal. The approval from GoI is awaited.
o The project providing Irrigation facilities to Himachal Area below Talwara is an inter-state project which is entirely meant for Himachal Pradesh. This project is covered under the guidelines of AIBP for Special Category States. Ministry of Water Resources is providing assistance to Punjab under norms for Non- Special Category States whereas share of HP is being provided under Special Category States. As all the benefits are going to HP, the Punjab share should also be considered under Special Category State.
7. Suggestions
o The stringent norms/conditions prescribed under the AIBP for funding of irrigation projects lead to denial/delay in allocation of funds. As the State is having a largest/oldest irrigation infrastructure, the classification of the States into ‘Special Category States’ and ‘Non Special Category States for funding under AIBP should be rationalized. Moreover, the relaxation for one for one condition as agreed in the bilateral
Flagship Programme 30-9-09-GoI.doc 7
discussions held in the Planning Commission at the time of finalization of Annual Plan 2008-09 is yet to be approved by the Ministry of Water Resources, GoI.
o Punjab needs the Renovation of the existing infrastructure to achieve the targeted agriculture growth rate. The work can be executed only during a canal closure which can be obtained for a period of not more than 2 months in a year. The Renovation Project needs to be taken up simultaneously so that maximum work can be executed. This project of Renovation of Canal Infrastructure of Punjab should be considered as one project and not as multiple projects.
o In view of the State’s contribution in terms of food grains in the Central Pool and also having a largest irrigation infrastructure, special funds may be provided to the State under Bharat Nirman Programme.
o As per financial norms under CAD & WM programme 10% contribution is to be made by the farmers. The financial condition of the farmers is not sound hence this condition must be relaxed or omitted.

o Initially there was little demand for manual work in the state and accordingly the utilizations of funds was not much. Now other departments like Irrigation and
Drainage, Forests and Agriculture have also been involved and utilization is picking up.
o Daily wage rate for unskilled labourers under NREGS in Punjab is Rs.123/- whereas in open market wage rate is higher than Rs.150/-, due to this workers are
reluctant to work under the scheme.
o At times the 60:40 ratio between wage and material component is also a problem.
7. Suggestions
o In the State like Punjab where few people come forward for manual work, the scope of the scheme needs to be widened to provide 100 days of employment to
each adult member of a family instead of total household.
o There is need to clarify the upper age limit of labourers under NREGS.
o The wage rate needs to be enhanced to Rs 150/- per day to attract additional work force under this programme.

6. Problem Faced by State : 1. The funds are released under RKVY in installments, with the result, the completion of projects is delayed.
2. The declining water table areas are considered as rain-fed area for the schemes implemented under RKVY, but these areas are not considered for allocation of funds under criteria No. 1 for RKVY.
7. Suggestions : 1. An independent cell/Agency for monitoring the implementation of RKVY projects should be set up under scheme and funds for the same should be provided under this programme.
2. The funds should be directly released to the Nodal Agency to reduce the time spent in getting these released.
3. Parameter-1 - “Un-irrigated area” should be changed and half the weightage may be given to maintenance and up-gradation of existing infrastructure of Irrigation and the remaining half to un-irrigated area.
4. Allocation under the project should be based on the percentage increase in GSDP achieved by individual states.

6. Problems faced by the State
o Delay in concurrence by FD for release of funds by GOI and matching State share is major hurdle towards timely implementation of the schemes. The State was too late in accessing the funds under this programme.
7. Suggestions: (i) GoI may consider to continue of Central Assistance beyond Mission period as by the time the mission period is over, leftover areas may be covered and
to further sustain the momentum achieved during mission period. (ii) The guidelines under BSUP / IHSDP enunciate that maximum of Rs. 80,000/- per Dwelling Unit shall be admissible for funding, the escalated cost needs to
be taken into consideration by Government of India in as much as that the initial cost of Rs. 1.28 lacs per Dwelling Unit for slum dwellers arrived at while posing DPRs has now escalated to Rs. 2.20 lacs per Dwelling Unit. While keeping in view the financial crunch in almost all Urban Local Bodies who may not be able to contribute its own share, it would, therefore, be imperative that Government of India may enhance the Grant-in-aid from the existing ceiling of Rs. 80,000/- per Dwelling Unit to Rs. 1,50,000/- per Dwelling Unit or as it may deem fit.
(iii) The Govt. of Punjab has availed a loan of Rs. 500 Cr. from HUDCO for infrastructure development projects for which the rate of interest being charged is 13.5%. It is suggested that HUDCO loan for this purpose should attract interest at 5% only.
4. Reasons of less receipt of funds/ less utilisation The TSC was not popular among the people of State as a similar State funded Sanitation project 'Rajiv Gandhi Pendu Jan Sehat Kalyan Yojana (RGPJSKY) was under implementation, which is highly subsidized than TSC. Now, State Government has decided to dovetail both the projects.
All the remaining school toilets are targeted to be covered during 2009-10

• The TSC is not popular among the people of State as a similar State funded Sanitation project 'Rajiv Gandhi Pendu Jan Sehat Kalyan Yojana (RGPJSKY) was under implementation, which is highly subsidized than TSC. Now, State Government has decided to dovetail both the projects.
• TSC project was periodically transferred from one department to another.
16. NATIONAL RURAL WATER SUPPLY PROGRAMME 1. Scheme: National Rural Water Supply Programme (NRWSP) (100%) 2. Year of Start: Continued Scheme 3. Brief Write-up: To expedite the coverage of problem villages and partially covered villages, Government of India provides funds on 100% basis under this
programme. 4. Financial Achievement:
(As on 30/9/2009) (Rs Cr)
Annual Allocation Receipt of funds Release of funds Expenditure
2005-06 41.35 0.00 41.35 41.35 0.00 41.35 51.66 0.00 51.66 37.55 0.00 37.55 Government of India has made a total allocation of Rs. 7764.00 lac for the year 2009-10 under all Centrally Sponsored Schemes NRWSP Coverage/ Quality Affected &
Swajaldhara. Out of this 20% i.e Rs. 1553.00 lac will be utilized for NRWSP (QA) and the balance Rs. 6211.00 lac will be used for other programmes. Against this allocation
Govt. of India has released a total of Rs. 2976.00 lac (Rs. 2380.80 lac under NRWSP (Coverage)+ Rs. 595.20 lac under NRWSP(QA) upto 30/9/2009.
o The State Government signed an agreement with World Bank for Rs. 1280.30 crore for water supply. It was proposed to cover 2124 (NC) not covered and 920 (PC)
partially covered villages under water supply schemes (now revised to 739 NC, 2422 PC), 100 villages are to be selected on pilot basis for provision of small bore
sewer system and ponds in 1000 villages would be cleaned and rejuvenated. The sharing pattern is (59:16:19:06:: World Bank : GOI : GOP : Community Share). The
contribution of beneficiary is 10 % in normal villages and 5 % in relatively backward areas like border villages (mountainous), Kandi villages (Riviera), Bet area and
Flood Affected Area and villages having 50 % or more SC population. This progress is slow in respect of World Bank scheme on account of reluctance of villagers to
pay their share. Now, World Bank has agreed to dilute the community contribution for Rs. 800/- per general gateway household and Rs. 400/- per SC category
household. This contribution is quite less than the 10% or 5% contribution mentioned above. With this the programs under World Bank assisted level Water Supply &
Sanitation project is likely to pick up.
o World Bank conditionality of beneficiary contribution to the schemes has been extended to NRWSP also, as result problems are being faced for expeditiously execution
